Detox Foot Spas And Baths

Another highly controversial detox product are the detox foot spas and baths. It works by submerging one’s feet into a basin with water and salt. The basin also produces a small amount of electric current to supposedly charge ions that helps in the detoxification process. After a few minutes, you will see that the water in the basin becomes murky and changes colour. This change in colour is claimed to be brought about by the release of toxins from the body.

Some people question this, as several experiments have been done without putting the feet into the basin and the water still changes colour. They have also scientifically explained this phenomenon to be nothing but a chemical reaction of electrolytic corrosion of the metal electrodes used in the basin. Although many doctors and scientists have warned people that this is a scam and may even be harmful to your health, as the corrosion might be able to enter through your open pores, there are still some people who would guarantee that it works.
